Silver Stain as a Colour Modifier

Silver stain can also serve a useful purpose to modify the colours of glass. If you add a silver stain pattern to a piece of light blue glass, for example, the result will be a green pattern. This creates all sorts of creative opportunities, particularly when used in conjunction with etched flash glass.

It is also possible to use the silver stain successfully with other paint and enamel colours to warm the colours.
